Old tombstones

My daughter visited last week and we went in search of a couple of tombstones - and found them both. We knew the towns they were located in and one of the cemetery names (the internet is a wonderful place).

She decided to make some phone calls before we left and the first cemetery she called in Gadsden was the right one - and the lady on the other end of the phone even walked out into the cemetery to verify the info and called us back. Now THAT's customer service!

The other one was a Revolutionary war veteran and that cemetery was in the middle of nowhere - my grandson said it was outside civilization - but it wasn't quite that bad. Well kept though and apparently still used.

I love old cemeteries - what stories they could tell. Always makes me wonder about the folks there - especially the older ones who lived in such a different time than us.
